Welcome to the world of playing guitar! If you'd like to keep at it for years to come, Make sure to have fun with playing. You should also learn how to set your guitar up eventually, If you do this it'll be more comfortable to play; A guitar that's set up well will sound very well and will encourage you to play more.

Here's a riff that may help you get started. It's from a song called "Planet Claire":

And if it ever seems too hard to play guitar, Remember that there are only twelve different notes in popular music and not all of them are used in most songs. There are different octaves of notes (For example, Holding the D string down on the second fret would make an E note like on the Low E or High E string) But they are still the same note.

Welcome to a very lifelong skill and ninja skill. It will help you with many things in life.
The number one thing i can tell you is to be teachable and to persevere. Guitar is a really fun skill and can be a constantly developing one. I was insoired by you so i made a list of 50 songs
based on the kind of music you like. Please, Don't let my list intimidate you. I really like to help people. Also Some of these might be hard at first but it might just be me. Smooth is a really common known song but is also hard. (10 is easiest, 1 is hardest):
